Figure 33-3. CTU Trigger Sources Allocation
All the flags can be divided in to four different counter groups which signify which PWM channel clock 
group the particular event is generated. The four counters can run in parallel and the trigger output is 
generated for the counter expiring first. If more than one counter reaches zero at the same time, the lower 
index counter has higher priority and the corresponding channel value is provided to the ADC.
Each trigger input from the CTU is connected to the Event Trigger signal of an eMIOS or PIT channel. 
The assignment between eMIOS/PIT outputs and CTU trigger inputs is defined in Table 33-9.
The eMIOS signal “FLAG” is used in DMA mode to interface with the trigger input of the CTU. The CTU 
resets the FLAG signal once the ADC conversion request has been completed.
NOTE
The eMIOS channels can either be used with eDMA or CTU. They cannot 
be used with eDMA and CTU at the same time.
